A Black Lives Matter activist, Mark Fisher, expressed his dissatisfaction with Vice President Kamala Harris and his intention to vote for former President Trump. Fisher criticized Harris, stating that she would use anything to her advantage and that her rise to power would be disastrous for the country. This sentiment marks a shift in Fisher's political stance, as he had previously supported the Democratic Party.
Three years ago, Fisher led an initiative within BLM Rhode Island calling for Democratic Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse to resign or sever ties with an all-White and exclusive Newport Beach club. Fisher's recent comments reflect a broader disillusionment with the Democratic Party among some Black voters.
